Pros

The people around you are excellent: sharp, well-put together and genuinely nice. The training on offer is absolutely outstanding and the experience was an outstanding introduction to business life.

Cons

I left about 6 months after Lehman brothers went bust. The firm was a pretty stressful place to be; both your clients and your colleagues were stressed and it became a much less caring environment. The work/life balance was also pretty bad. I hear things are better now

Pros

What I like the most working for BCG is that you find a unique working environment. I have made friends all over the world. It is a pleasure to work with my peers, superiors, with everyone! BCG offers you good perks and benefits and it has a good open policy inside the company. It also gives you opportunities to grow and gives you training in case you want to improve your performance.

Cons

I see that consultants work too much. They have long working hours.

Pros

Smart people Great training Excellent benefits Great brand equity High value add for clients

Cons

Highly individualized work place with lack of genuine team ethic - you work on your own, so expect little input/help from senior's when genuinely needed Over emphasis on slides as opposed to substance of output in some cases Good project managers but poor man-managers
